The battery is a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Its ability to generate power comes
from the chemical reaction that takes place inside it. This reaction is susceptible to
the surrounding temperature and humidity. If the temperature is too high or too low,
the operating time of the battery will become shorter.
Always remove the battery after use.
If you drop the battery accidentally, check to see if the body of the battery and the
terminals are damaged.
•
Inserting a damaged battery in the camera will damage the camera.
Bring charged spare batteries when going out.
•
Be aware that the operating time of the battery becomes shorter in low temperature conditions
such as at a ski resort.
•
When you travel, do not forget to bring the battery charger (supplied) and the AC cable
(supplied) so that you can charge the battery in the country that you are travelling in.
Dispose of unusable battery.

The battery has a limited life.
•
Do not throw the battery into fire because it may cause an explosion.
Do not allow battery terminals to come into contact with metal objects (such as

battery.
•
If you use the battery charger near a radio, the radio reception may be disturbed.
